Hi Erich Heinzie,
Do I need a footprint file also for the Picaxe-14?
I have been looking for sym-files (and fp-files?) for:
- a 3-legged step-up power converter (from Canton-Power)
- a hc-12 transceiver (5 legs)
- SW-420 vibration tester (3 legs)
without finding it. Maybe I can use something else with the right number of
legs.
Does anybody have it?
